Emmy Squared Pizza: Athens offers Georgia's best Detroit-style pizza, alongside craveable bites and a full bar featuring specialty cocktails. Join us for Happy Hour Monday–Thursday from 4 PM–6 PM. The top choice for crafted pizza in Georgia.In 2014, Emily and Matt opened their first restaurant in Clinton Hill, Brooklyn, with a goal to create quality pies. A trip to Detroit changed everything: they loved the local style, the crispy cheese edge, airy dough, and bold red sauce. They knew pairing this base with chef-inspired toppings would be special.Back in Brooklyn, they began experimenting with organic flour, aged cheeses, fresh tomatoes, and combinations like truffle/mushrooms or pesto/Calabrian chilies, perfecting that crave-worthy cheese crust. In 2016, they unveiled their Detroit-style take with Emmy Squared Pizza. They remain committed to crafting the country's most thoughtful pizzas. We hope you enjoy them!Detroit-Style Soul, Brooklyn Born.

    We were at The Chop House on November 5. The restaurant is beautifully decorated for Christmas. I mean - stunning! You can’t help but be in a great mood when you walk through the door. Our server was a young lady named Natalie. She was perfect from beginning to end. She shared her beautiful smile with us and was friendly and efficient throughout our visit. She brought our drinks in a timely matter and continued that great service through to dessert and coffee. My husband had the pork chop and loved it. I had the medallions with peppercorn sauce. Natalie came back a few minutes after dropping off our entrees to ask if everything was as expected. I told her the truth: the best steak with peppercorn sauce I ever had was in 2013 in northern Ireland. It was a meal I’d dreamed of being able to enjoy again some day. Those medallions with peppercorn sauce I had at The Chop House rivaled those of Ireland. I can’t tell you how happy I was with my meal! My compliments to the chef! My compliments also to Natalie, the bartender, everyone, for a job well done!
